Get fucked faggot.

Um, was that really necessary? Throwing slurs like that around is... I dunno. I personally don't like it, but I'm not gonna tell you what to do. @w@

Anyways, does this involve free cereal?

I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me. Thank you for pointing out the error of my ways, Kurosakura. :( I would have been a runaway train if it weren't for your insight. I love you.

And no, that isn't part of the deal.

That is unfortunate. But seriously guys, I do hope this international holiday becomes moderately successful. If I can get one other soul to eat Froot Loops on this day, then I'll be happy. I love you all. :)

That bowl looks like it's glowing. @.@ Why is there a froot loops day? And is it just for Kellogg's, or any other brand of colorful rings with artificial flavors?

Fruit Loops kicked ass when I was kid. DX Now I just have honey bunches of oats.

i don't consume froot loops because i don't condone the usage of high fructose corn syrup

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks that.

I don't like Fruit Loops so I'll be passing on this holiday. Now, if there's a Cheerios or Rice Krispies holiday, I'm your guy.

Bowls of Fruit Loops ALWAYS glow. And rightfully. They are spiritually charged with AWESOMENESS.

shazza
7th September 2009, 12:19 AM
From my experience, unlike that picture, froot loops don't glow; I just chose that picture because it was glowing, and I thought that was cool. Seeing as I invented this revolutionary holiday, any form Froot Loops, not just the Kellogg's type, would suffice.

Now that I have admitted to creating this holiday, this topic has just transformed into quick plug, hasn't it?

Haha! Well, I used to love Froot Loops a a kid (must be an Australian and European cereal). When I was stoned on September 9, 2008, I along with my friend decided to purchase some Froot Loops and eat them.

I nearly cried with joy at the nostalgic taste that was rushing through me. I cried out, "I'm tasting rainbows here!"

Lady Vulpix

It's not just Australian and European, we have it in Argentina as well and I've seen it in the USA. But I like the Granix ones better.

Froot Loops has been one of my favourite cereals for years. Despite the fact the loops don't have a "true" fruity flavour to them, they're still great with milk, and just as good when made into squares.

Gabi, about the Granix equivalent of the cereal you have in Buenos Aires, do they have the same taste as the Froot Loops over here? I'm just a little curious.

Lady Vulpix
7th September 2009, 10:59 AM
I don't know what they taste like in Canada (each country has its own formula), but they're tastier and slightly less sugary than the Froot Loops Kellogg's makes in Argentina. Though that probably means they have a higher concentration of artificial flavoring.

I hate Froot Loops, they make cerealmilk vile. Cheerios kick all kinds of ass, or if I'm feeling sassy, Reeses Puffs.

Gasp, I did not realize such a joyous occasion is fast approaching!! Fruit Loops = SUPREME CEREAL.


"I'm tasting rainbows here!"

That is the perfect way to describe their taste. Yummay. I wish I hadn't already destroyed the box of Fruit Loops I bought a few days ago... but with the 9th approaching it's probably time to stock up. >D

I was wondering why I hadn't found any evidence of this either. I even went on the Froot Loops webpage and shot pirates with lasers, but no mention of a Froot Loop day.
Regardless, if shazza wants a Froot Loop day, he shall have it!

Fact: They are spelt 'Froot' Loops because of an apparent lawsuit over their lack of actual fruit. Happy International Froot Loop Day! ...I had Lucky Charms for breakfast.


I admitted a few posts ago that this beauty is my creation. :)

It's only 2.5 hours in to the Froot Loops partay , but I am already regretting my lack of Froot Loop purchase so far.

All I have right now is "LIFE" cereal... and that is [i]NOT the same as loopz of fruit. :s: :s: :s:

Grocery shopping when I wake up = mega urgent.

(Errr.. I mean after sleeping a bit. Derp. It's only 2:35am here.)

International Froot Loops Day has been officially over in Australia for 42 minutes. I was surprised at the support I got today, people that I didn't expect telling me how they had Froot Loops for breakfast.

I spent my first International Froot Loops day by indulging in a big bowl for breakfast, and a big bowl for dinner. I also took some photos for the Facebook group: a photo of myself pouring it down my throat out of the cereal box, almost choking in the process; I spelled out 09/09/09 with Froot Loops, I'm an amateur so they're pretty crap, and I really hate my 9's; and finally I got my roommate to take a photo of me in the shower, pouring froot loops over my head - rainbows falling bit by bit from the sky.

Now I have to shower as I have artificial sugar all throughout my scalp. Overall, a fine Froot Loops day! :)

I was surprised to find out that the ones I have actually have SUGAR in them and not some kind of BS sweetener like high fructose corn syrup.

First off Patrick Stewart is not a has been. Second Star Trek is far from overrated and shitty. It's been running in one form or another for the last 40 years at least and is only second behind Doctor Who for longest running sci fi series.

Granted I won't deny the whole facepalm thing isn't memetic but come on! Would to prefer me to do that or "It's Over 9000!" in a situation where the latter makes no damn sense? :P
